A tech entrepreneur has stepped down from the top job at the business software firm she launched in 2018. Leanne Bonner-Cooke MBE, has left the post of chief executive of Leicestershire-based e-bate, saying the time was right to move on and take "a digital detox".
She has been replaced by John O'Sullivan who has a long background helping businesses grow through people and technology. The e-bate software platform helps companies to manage and simplify rebate and promotional incentives schemes – which are historically complex and calculated manually using spreadsheets.
As well as running e-bate, Ms Bonner-Cooke also founded software company Evolve-IT Consulting and was awarded an MBE in 2017 for her services to women in business.
